Davy Crockett and Coaches

Paul Sheppard's Collection

Tri-ang 'Davy Crockett' collection. I have two 'Davy' locos, one with a gloss finish, the other with a matt finish. I have 3 x R.488 lined coaches and 3 x R.488 unlined coaches. I also have the 'related' R.449 'Old Time Caboose'. I have the set box (in the pic it features the matt 'Davy' and the unlined coaches) though it's a bit aged and needs some sorting out as I haven't yet added the track that came with it. The unlined coaches and the caboose have repro chimneys, the lined coaches have original chimneys. The first non-model pic is the advert (an original that I have) from the Eagle comic, 24 Nov, 1962. The final pic of this sequence shows the catalogue mistake from 1965 which incorrectly identifies the caboose as R.115
